Book Description
Magic runs deep. Blood runs deeper. Vaelon Stone is ten years old when he's chosen by an ancient spirit to be imbued with supernatural gifts. After eating some trillyrium berries, he finds that he has healing abilities and can generate plasma through his hands. Having successfully saved his village from being obliterated by a meteorite, he is transported from Mysteria, his homeland, to modern-day Earth, along with the berries. Eight years later, after being assimilated into Western society, Vaelon learns of four others like him, one being his best friend Zack. Soon, they track down the three remaining supernaturals: Elisabeth, a sarcastic beauty with super strength, speed, and the ability to turn invisible, Lauren, a girl with the ability to shape and conjure metal, and Nat, a shapeshifter who can transform herself and those around her. But once the newly named Trillyriums come together, they discover they have been marked by Amarina Violette, a centuries' old psychic, seeking the Trillyriums' blood to cast a plague of death in her homeland—Mysteria, the very place Vaelon is from. Will the quintet, bound together by their supernatural blood, withstand being pushed to their limits to defend the people of Mysteria, or will Amarina break them and force the country to crumble under her wrath?

Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1483162737
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
Pearl: Natural, Cultured and Imitation discusses some aspects, distinction, and authenticity of pearl. This book is divided into 10 chapters that cover the origin, anatomy, sources, and prices of this precious gem. The first five chapters are devoted to natural pearls, their unique features, origin, history, structure, anatomy, and source. The next two chapters cover cultivation and testing of cultured pearls, as well as their market value. A chapter focuses on the properties of various imitation pearls. The concluding chapters deal with the pricing of pearls, primarily based on an elaborate method using a base price referred to as the "unit base price. These chapters also consider other pearl uses other than necklaces, such as borders to brooches and festoons. This book will be of great value to pearl traders, manufacturers, and users.

Pearls for Primary Care
Author: Michael B Jacobs
Publisher: Universal-Publishers
ISBN: 1627343687
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 560
Book Description
Pearls for Primary Care is unique, integrating pertinent basic science information with clinical medicine. The resource bridges the information gap and provides insights for providers and students. Additionally, there are succinct yet comprehensive presentations on managing the more common outpatient problems. This book is for primary care providers and students, e.g., physicians, APRNs, and PAs who desire to improve their patient-education, diagnostic, and treatment skills. Part One provides the biochemistry and physiology precepts to incorporate in understanding of the basics of diseases and treatments. There are chapters on basic biochemistry, fluid and sodium control, acid-base balance, bone marrow, vitamins, autonomic nervous system and control of vital signs, genomics, immunology, and updated treatments for cancer and autoimmune disorders. Part Two takes this information to the next level, emphasizing approaches and insights for managing patients at the primary care level. Many outpatient presentations are covered in the first chapter, e.g., summary of testing, approaches to eye, ear, disease screening, male and female problems, mood disorders, syncope, headaches and other pain issues, while Orthopedics, Cardiology, and Dermatology are covered in the next three chapters. Practical anatomy and injection techniques are emphasized in the Orthopedics section. Basic tools for handling most outpatient cardiac and skin issues are introduced in the subsequent chapters. The final nine chapters introduce subspecialities and typical outpatient problems. There are systematic and pertinent approaches for the management of these issues with guides for improving patient outcomes, supplemented with germane physiology. Providers should be more confident in their abilities after reviewing the presented information. PEARLS are interspersed in the book to embellish and emphasize important concepts. The book’s focus is to improve the delivery of outpatient medicine; as knowledgeable providers are keys to the process. WORDS OF PRAISE I found this book most illuminating in helping improve my primary care skills. In addition, I used this book for my education and to better communicate with patients. The straightforward approach to biochemistry and physiology helped cement concepts I had forgotten, e.g., ketosis, omega-3 fatty acids. --Samuel Auerbach, MD, Las Vegas, Nevada I enjoyed the book’s completeness which is unique in a primary care textbook centering on outpatient medicine. I have used the book as a resource when a patient presents with unclear diagnoses; the book presents the biochemistry and physiology underpinnings of disease, plus concise treatment plans for outpatient management. --Kathleen Menasche, DNP, CNM, Las Vegas, Nevada I found the overall text very useful in my practice; the practical anatomy section is not usually found in primary care textbooks, which was primarily of use. I also learned injection techniques that I had been wary of in the past, e.g., occipital nerve blocks and carpal tunnel syndrome injections. --Emmanuel Brandeis, MD, New York City
